    rhEPO Upregulates the PPARγ Pathway in Long-term Cultured Primary Nerve Cells via PI3K/Akt to Delay Cell Senescence

    Previous studies have confirmed that both recombinant human erythropoietin (rhEPO) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors γ (PPARγ) activator pioglitazone can protect senescent nerve cells, and their ...

    Inhibition of GSK-3β Activation Protects SD Rat Retina Against N-Methyl-N-Nitrosourea-Induced Degeneration by Modulating the Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling Pathway

    Retinal degenerative diseases are characterized by photoreceptor cell loss. Photoreceptor cell loss leading to retinal degeneration can be induced by N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (MNU), which was widely used to mimi...

    rhEPO Enhances Cellular Anti-oxidant Capacity to Protect Long-Term Cultured Aging Primary Nerve Cells

    Erythropoietin (EPO) may protect the nervous system of animals against aging damage, making it a potential anti-aging drug for the nervous system. However, experimental evidence from natural aging nerve cell mode...

    17β-Estradiol Protects the Retinal Nerve Cells Suppressing TLR2 Mediated Immune-Inflammation and Apoptosis from Oxidative Stress Insult Independent of PI3K

    The excessive apoptosis of retinal nerve cells (RNCs) could cause a variety of retinal neurodegenerative diseases which could result in the irreversible blindness. In this study, the experiment models of H2O2 and...

    17β-Estradiol Ameliorates Light-Induced Retinal Damage in Sprague–Dawley Rats by Reducing Oxidative Stress

    Oxidative stress is considered as a major cause of light-induced retinal neurodegeneration. The protective role of 17β-estradiol (βE2) in neurodegenerative disorders is well known, but its underlying mechanism...

    17β-Estradiol Impedes Bax-Involved Mitochondrial Apoptosis of Retinal Nerve Cells Induced by Oxidative Damage via the Phosphatidylinositol 3-Kinase/Akt Signal Pathway

    Oxidative stress leading to retinal nerve cells (RNCs) apoptosis is a major cause of neurodegenerative disorders of the retina. 17β-Estradiol (E2) has been suggested to be a neuroprotective agent in the centra...
